AI Summary

This bill, effective July 1, 2026, amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Title 9, which deals with state finance and financial administration, to clarify how funds are appropriated for debt service payments. Specifically, it allows airport authorities, operating under specific state laws (Title 42, Chapters 3 or 4), to directly and continuously appropriate funds for the issuance of debt that is not a liability of the state and for the payment of the interest and principal on that debt, known as debt service. This change is made by inserting language into an existing section of law that previously only allowed the housing development agency to make such appropriations.
